Hotel is very historical. The service at the restaurant is amazing. The live piano in the lobby- extremely nice touch. However our room felt very “unloved” and unkept. Cheap bedding and uncomfortable small pillows. Peeling wallpapers here and here ( not a major issue but noticeable ) Shower was renovated but bathroom had moisture stains on the ceiling. Housekeeping: Mirror had fingerprints and shower floor had hair upon check in. Hairdryer was old, nasty ( human hair and wax/ dirt all over the it), and broken ( they replaced it promptly upon request) We had 1 robe for 2 people. Were we supposed to share? Our room was cleaned once during the 3 day stay after we called the front desk for fresh towels. I don’t know if we missed a memo somewhere that you need to ask for service every time. Overall - disappointing experience

Living on its past, rooms need to be updated…curtains ripped at top, not able to fully shut with lights from building across street shining in all night, limited electrical outlets,,no light on closet, early morning dining unavailable, coffe had to be gotten from the check in desk , we had two cups and they were then out at 7:15..asked if more would be made?” Not until cafe opens at 8.” Ridiculous. It’s coffee not caviar we’re asking for. Overall condition of hotel looked worn except for ball room and rooftop garden.like a haunted, poorly run castle. Area around hotel dangerous..very scary. I’d never stay there again and would recommend anyone do so.

The staff and valet were excellent and helpful and kind. The rooms however were a bit dusty and dingy. We had a light out in the bathroom. I understand this is a historic hotel but I do feel it could be better kept.
